Local know-how
Exterior painting is the fussiest job on the list: it wants mild temperatures, low wind, and no rain from application until cured.
- ◆Check tomorrow too — most exterior paints want 24 dry hours after application.
- ◆Avoid painting in direct midday sun on hot days; paint skins too fast and brush marks stay.
- ◆Wind above 25 km/h blows dust into wet paint and dries edges before you can blend.
